Where were the Apaches parked?

[ Post made via Mobile Device ]

no idea, saw them landing on runway 08 and then hovering from the middle of the runway until disappearing behind the tower. I think they MIGHT have been parked somewhere between tower and C-130 ramps (?). The US Army Apaches will probably be "shipped" via C-17s to an oversea destination.

[Stafhunter]

That the reason we visit always the Bismarcktower for a full score

Eric,

This afternoon al was empty on platform 2. I checked from the Kindsbach hill. So most probably they are still inside. Today was really quiet!
